Download Android 4.4.1 OTA (KOT49E) For The Nexus 4

Android 4.4.1 is rolling out for a number of devices today, including the Nexus 5,
but as with most Nexus device updates, it's happening in stages. As
such, it could be a few days before you get the OTA if you choose to

4.4.1 OTA for the Nexus 4.

and other commands. You don't need a USB cable if you're just planning
to download the OTA zip directly to your device and flash it from
recovery.

Install

Note: This method, just like the native OTA update procedure, does not wipe your data.

You'll use the adb sideload command after making sure your device is properly detected by ADB. You can check out our full sideload guide here
– the process is identical except for the file name. If you have a
custom recovery, it can be flashed from there. Just copy the file.

Rooting

The update will likely kill root on previously rooted devices, but it's easy to get back:
